WIN4SMEs brings together vocational institutions, universities, and business support organizations to foster workplace innovations within the SME sector—ensuring that European companies not only adapt to the future but lead the way.
A core concept of the project is ”workplace innovation.” This term can refer either to any innovation developed within a workplace or, more specifically, to an innovation that improves working conditions and enhances the meaningfulness of work. WIN4SMEs emphasizes the latter interpretation, which is reflected in the distinct focuses of the competence hubs established in each participating country.
